In addition to the password you use for your Barnes & Noble online account, your Nook passcode restricts access to the device -- if you enable passcode protection, you'll have to input this four-digit code to unlock your Nook before use. In a high-tech world full of passwords and security questions, it's easy to forget a code or two. If your Nook passcode has slipped your mind, it only takes a little tinkering to reset it.

Enter your Nook passcode incorrectly three times. At this point, you'll be given to option to “Disable pass code using account credentials.” Select this option.
